Baby Girl, Let's Fall Asleep Forever
posted by Gabriela on Monday, June 26, 2006|

I would like to tell you that my life has been interesting lately...but I don't like lies. I just wrote a new poem and I liked it...it's not the greatest poem...I don't think it's even really good compared to other poetry, but it means something to me.
I have cried a lot of times lately, but that's just our little secret. Right? It's been a dark time for me, being seventeen, daily breakdowns...
I don't know what else can I tell you so I'll share with you my latest poem "Baby Girl, Let's Fall Asleep Forever". I hope you like it.

Baby girl, I remember when you were a stranger,
And your pain and scars seemed far away from me.
I couldn't understand why your eyes yelled danger,
Didn't even know how broken you could be.

I knew I was missing something about you,
You were hiding shame reasons behind your eyes.
I was scared of what you would possibly do,
Of the desperate feelings twisting your mind.

I wanted to help you, but I had no words,
To show you how everything would be fine.
I wanted to hold you and never let go,
To have your torn heart close to mine.

Today I have changed, now I'm your closest friend,
Being your friend hurts since I live your pain.
I kiss your scars and your mistakes try to mend,
Being in your mind makes my life insane.

I see you everyday, you live in my reflection,
I taste your tears and touch your fake smile.
I know we're lost, and tired of rejections,
There's no place to go to save what's inside.

It's just the two of us, so take my hand,
Let's fall asleep forever and live in dreams.
Forget about how things used to be and dance,
I don't know how to fix us, so let's just breathe.
